ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for handling a patient's blood during a first medical use which is convertible for a second medical use comprises a first device, for adapting the reservoir for use during a first medical use and a second device for adapting the reservoir for a second medical use after the first medical use. A lever pivotally mounted on the apparatus, engages at least one of the devices so that pivoting the lever causes the devices to move, moving the first device out of its operative position and moving the second device into its operative position. A lock for the lever locks the devices in place, and a valve mechanism automatically selects a proper outlet.
